Last night I spent the night at the Petro in Racine, WI. I looked all around and didn't see Rev's Chevybilt or was it the Peterolet?

You were close. About 30 minutes to Pewaukee, and you would have been there. :wink:

I wasn't sure where you were, but felt that it was close to the Petro. I dropped a paving roller at the equipment dealer in Franksville.

They use it to keep sound in the car, but I will be using it to keep sound out of the truck. It is adhesive backed, and very sticky. The foil should also keep some of the heat from the transmission out of the cab. Total cost = $84.

Okay, sorry about the lack of updates. I drilled the holes for the air lines and power lines today, and began the process of painting the air line box. I've got one coat of primer, and two coats of satin black on it already. Tomorrow, I will put two coats of satin clear on it.

I was expecting my deck plate to show up today, but it didn't. Hopefully tomorrow it will arrive. I sold my Taylor Wing on eBay for $200, and got $233.50 out of my headlights, and an additional $78.00 out of my steps from behind the sleeper (which are going to Australia).

The truck was back in the paint booth today to get the black sprayed. Apparently, there are a few parts they will still be painting tomorrow, but assembly will begin tomorrow, and run into Wednesday. I'll be heading down Wed. morning to survey the damage. I'm really itching to get this thing put back together and get out on the road.

Box looks nice. Track down a polishing place yet? Are you putting cab and sleeper lights on under the doors and bunk or going sleek?

Polishing will wait until the next time I'm home.

Lights under the cab and sleeper, but they will be completely hidden.
